September 19th, Linhu Palace. slutty
Li Yuan sat at the top, staring at Li Shimin with an unswerving expression, "Young Master Erlang is so heroic and magnanimous, why do you allow his subordinates to be so corrupt and despicable?"
Li Jiancheng on the side added fuel to the fire: "Even if the Shaofu and the Ministry of Civil Affairs are temporarily unable to pay, but in this national war, my second brother has not been on the battlefield in person..."
Tsk tsk, I have to say that Li Jiancheng's palace fighting methods are still very aggressive. He stopped talking in the middle of the sentence. Those blank spaces make people think about it... At least it has this meaning. Li Yuan will inevitably think that the King of Handan is leading the army and the King of Qin is making small moves behind him. , what do you want to do?
Do you hope that Li Shan will be defeated, and then Erlang will come back to turn the tide and replace Dalang in the East Palace?
Li Shimin looked calm and looked at Li Jiancheng with a hint of ridicule in his eyes, "The Du family in Jingzhao is well-known throughout the country. If the prince is interested, he can recruit Du Zhili as an official in the East Palace. I dare not stop him."
Li Yuan coughed twice and said, "Don't say such angry words, Erlang."
Hey, in fact, Li Shimin really wasn't speaking out of anger. He was really annoyed with that old guy Du Yan. For that little money... Li Shandu had set out for several days, but he still didn't let go. For this reason, he and his nephew Du Ruhui It was a complete falling out, which made the entire Jingzhao Du clan restless. slutty
Well, it's not that little bit of money... According to the normal price, it's a lot of money, and what Li Shimin and Du Ruhui don't know about it is that there are actually a lot of Yuhuchun stored in Du's Zhuangzi in Jingzhao. It can shock anyone who sees it.
The problem is that Yuhuchun cannot be used directly. It needs to be distilled again, so Li Shan needs a lot of raw materials for Yuhuchun.
Du Ruhui had already taken people to Zhuangzi... Because of this incident, Du Yan turned his nephew away. How dare he let people know the number of Yu Huchun in Zhuangzi.
Making wine requires food. With so much wine, where did Du Yan get so much food?
Anyone with normal logic will know that there must be something wrong here, and the autumn harvest has just ended, and the winery cannot be so fast...The source of the food is a question.
Well, I have to admit that Li Shan did need a lot of Yuhuchun, but he did dig this hole for Du Yan... Back then, he accidentally discovered that there was a secret relationship between Feng Lun and King Qi, which was from Yuhuchun's grain. It started with help.
What is the connection between Du Yan and Feng Lun? slutty
And what is the relationship between Feng Lun and King Qi?
And the two young ministers of Sinong Temple, Zhao Yuankai and Yu Wenying, happened to have close contacts with King Qi...
Li Shan dug this hole conveniently, hoping that those who would come after him would be able to expose the matter. It would not be a good thing anyway, and Feng Lun, Du Yan, and King Qi either had nothing to do with him or had grudges.
Du Yan naturally couldn't think of this, and he didn't even think that it was Li Shan who dug the hole. He only focused on starting a war with his nephew Du Ruhui.
In fact, the most unlucky person was not Du Ruhui, who was full of troubles, but Taichang Qing Dou Dan. Li Shan kept his word. After setting off, he wrote a letter almost every day to urge Yuhuchun... The specific distillation process was carried out by Tai Changqing. Chang Si was in charge, and Dou Dan had a good relationship with the general supervisor and the Shaofu.
Dou Dan is so busy these days that he hits the back of his head, but he has to find time every day...either to go to Chengqian Hall or Tiance Mansion, anyway, to block Li Shimin.
All the officials in the dynasty knew that the two official officials of this generation's direct lineage of the Du family in Jingzhao were both officials of the Tiance Mansion. It was Du Yan who snatched the Yuhuchun property from Li Shan. slutty
If not Li Shimin, who else could we turn to?
But what can Li Shimin do...do he force his ministers to break up their families for the sake of the country?
It happened to be a war, and neither the Shaofu nor the Ministry of Civil Affairs were willing to give the money. At most, it was on credit... We would talk about it if we had money in the future, but how could Du Yan agree to it?
The scholars of this era were all children of aristocratic families, and they generally valued their own interests and the interests of their families over the interests of the country.
If Li Shimin forced Du Yan to donate... what would the other people under his command think?
Later generations said that the battle between the King of Qin and the Crown Prince was actually a confrontation between the Guanlong clan and the Shandong nobles, but in fact this view is too biased.
Yes, the lineage of the King of Qin does include many important figures in the Guanlong Group such as Changsun Shunde, Changsun Wuji, and Dugu Yanyun, but there are also many descendants of officials whose family backgrounds have declined, such as Cheng Yaojin, Yuchi Gong, and Qin Qiong.
Under Li Shimin's command, there were also many noble families in Shandong, including the Taiyuan Wang family, the Zhaojun Li family, the Jiexian Liu family, the Hedong Xue family, the Boling Cui family, the Jingzhao Du family, the Qinghe Fang family, and the Xingyang Zheng family. . slutty
Forcing Du Yan to donate...what would the children of so many wealthy families think?
Li Shimin could only ask Fang Xuanling and Ling Jing to urge him privately... to urge Du Ruhui to the point where Du Ruhui was about to go to war with his uncle Du Yan.
Until today, after Dou Dan once again received a fierce letter from Li Shan, he simply revealed the matter to Li Yuan.
Now it's Li Shimin's turn to have a headache. He wants to explain something... But let alone Prince Li Jiancheng, even Li Yuan doesn't believe it.
"Second brother, we can't let Huairen pay for this money, right?" Li Jiancheng chased after him, "I remember last month Huairen borrowed a large amount of money from Third Sister and the King of Huaiyang."
Li Yuan smiled and nodded, "Yesterday Pingyang was still talking about this. Huairen just had a soft heart and took in those refugees... If he hadn't served as a personal guard and accompanied Huairen on the expedition, I'm afraid there would be no place to live."
Princess Pingyang gave birth to a daughter on the second night after Li Shan left Beijing. Li Yuan was overjoyed and insisted on being canonized as the head of Wugong County despite Princess Pingyang and his wife's three consecutive refusals. slutty
The Tang Dynasty followed the Han system. Generally, only the prince's daughter could be canonized as county lord. Historically, clan daughters and relatives would also have the title of princess or county lord. After all, the princess's daughter had a foreign surname, so she was actually canonized as county lord. This shows that Li Yuan He loves his daughter Pingyang very much.
Moreover, he also used martial arts as his title. At that time, Princess Pingyang formed a large army in the pass and was stationed in Wugong County, with more than 70,000 people under her command.
Li Shimin gritted his teeth and cursed Li Shan secretly. He had left such a troublesome thing before leaving. He would have to settle the score with this guy later!
At this time, the palace official reported, and Pei Ji, who was looking happy, walked into the palace quickly, holding up the document in his hand, "Your Majesty, Jingzhou is victorious!"
Before Li Yuan could react, Li Jiancheng had already jumped up from where he was, grabbed the document, looked at it a few times, and laughed loudly: "Great victory, great victory!"
"Handan Guo is a famous general in the world!"
And Li Shimin stared at the delighted Li Jiancheng suspiciously... How could it be so fast? slutty
After reading the document for a while, Li Yuan glanced sideways at his eldest son. He knew what this man was thinking. Even if he wanted to stop Erlang from leading the army, he couldn't be so exaggerated. Although he won the battle, it was not a great victory.
